5 Best Comic Strips of All Time, Ranked

Calling them the funny pages has always undermined what comic strips are capable of. The medium has always had little space to work with, yet some of the most ambitious and popular art of the 20th century was created within these very limitations. Cartoonists managed to build entire worlds inside tiny boxes, a handful of panels, and a few speech bubbles. In doing so, they told stories that resonated with readers for years. That is because comic strips occupy a pretty unique place in everyday life.
